Ooooh that's a lot... but it's an investment. I see the predicament
I have so many games but can't decide what to play so I am instead not playing anything and just scrolling Lemmy. 😮💨
Ooooh which games?
Too much homework.
Same
What kind are you doing?
Computer hw. Systems programming to be more specific
My father has gone against my grandparents wishes and isn't sharing the inheritance with his children.
Oh gawd. Is he a good dad in general?
no
Not surprised but I'm sorry
It was the nail in the coffin of our relationship. I've stopped answering his calls and am just done with him. So in a way its a blessing.
I get that totally some people are toxic
(gestures vaguely:) I'm American...
But the question was about first world....
Sorry for what you're going mate but I couldn't help making the joke
It's a fair point. I'm one of the lucky ones, really. For now I only have to suffer embarrassment.
You really do have my sympathy
I'm sorry we have become the burden the world has to deal with right now.
Eeeeeeh do you mean now as in the last 80 years?
Would gesturing vaguely a second time answer your question satisfactorily?
The country next to mine keeps threatening to invade.
That's traditionally a third world problem.
Canadian?
Big mood.
Our Senior sysadmin is on vacation, and on Wednesday, our licenses for both our email filtering system and our firewall run out.
I was tasked with getting the replacement systems set up, but due to miscommunication and other issues, I didn't have enough time for a proper test run.
So we're going to flip the switch and hope we are still able to log in and receive mail afterwards.
Cause if we aren't, we're forced to pay 30k € for a license renewal after already purchasing the replacements.
This has lead to a resurgence of my ADHD symptoms, and I wasn't able to wind down all weekend.
I've been having a constant fight-or-flight reflex for the past 3 days, but there's nothing to fight or flee from.
That's stressful mate... I have anxiety so I can relate to what it's like to have your body think you're being chased by a bear. Reach out to us of you need to vent
Yes please reach out, someone's stupidity is always falling on people who couldn't have prevented it and has to fix it
Battling a gaming addiction and accompanying sleep deprivation.
Keeping ducks out of my pool.
Also there's a certain fork my partner hates using but refuses to get rid of.
I love ducks so I'd be no use to you. I'd be encouraging them to come back more
They shit so much, otherwise I'd be fine with them.
Ahhhhh good point...
Instead of treating my intense joint pain, I just got prescribed an app with streching exercises. Thanks for nothing.
Travelling too much means I can't spend time at home
Where are you travelling to?
A few countries nearby to visit family. It's not that bad, that's why it's a first world problem 😄
